Quote from: SeikI believe another migration of that scale won't happen again because this community is not only fractured to hell and back already with communities that migrated to their own various places, but some will stay here, just like some stayed on GAF. When you weigh it all out, that won't make that many people that will move on.Forum days are dying, but I don't mind having multiple places to visit to keep those that want to, under proper ethics, keep going. For sure. The other main videogame/current events forum I post on (www.dayonepatch.com) was formed in 2010 from an exodus from the IGN boards. It's still going strong, largely because it's owned and operated by one of the members on a not-profitable basis (there are no ads or fees, he just pays for it himself). Much more ethical, imo, and important to the community.

Quote from: Commissar SFLUFAN OLOLOLOLOLO - I just got a 3-day ban for "self promotion".But they didn't actually remove the link to D1P from the post Weirdly, I have not also received a ban, even though I've made sure to post in that thread every few pages with a subtle (or not so subtle) link to here. I even blatantly posted the site in a few communities I am involved in (mostly Canadian politics...so look forward to more OF THAT).

Quote from: -RIt's just that saying that they weren't paid, they didn't get to own any shares and that being a reason to leave is weird if y'all were, indeed, offered to have shares. I'm just curious on this because I think everyone, including myself, thought that all founders had shares when the site was launched, but that isn't the case anymore.Actually after talking with some other folks, looks like there might have been some things off about who was and who wasn't offered shares.However, the point about being paid not being the same thing as owning shares is true. Signing on the dotted line means exposing yourself to Kiwi Farms. No one wants to deal with that.

I realized the dude that started out larping on SalesEra as old NeoGAF-Nintex is actually the admin of the Install Base board sales board.Just noticed him tweeting about the big number of registrations he has to approve.I know him well, he's a good kid

The Fremen are not Arabs. The Arab people are among their several very, very distant ancestors, and their culture is a hodgepodge of multiple cultures and religious movements. We're talking about a mixed culture that has survived, separately from Earth, for thousands of years. For their words to be pronounced like they are today is absolute nonsense. Heck, we're less than 2000 years separated from the Roman Empire, and we have no way of truly knowing how Latin was spoken back then, despite the language still being taught and used.Your expectations are unreasonable if you want the Fremen to be a perfect replica of modern Arab culture and language or even physical appearance.

Quote from: BasquiatIt just highlights how extremism comes at both ends of the spectrum. Yet everyone is still engaged in this never ending culture war.What if it's a person who just saw their national credit cut and had their entire life thrown into disarray no longer able to afford rent, food, and heat thanks to people like this Tory and they had nowhere else to turn? Is that a culture war? What was Jo Cox murdered for? A fucking white supremacist loon thought white people were being out bred.I'm tired of this "both ends" false equivalence horseshit. Tories choose to ruin people's lives every day. Chickens possibly coming home to roost is not the same as murdering someone because of batshit insanity.

It’s unfortunate he was murdered but the reality is that if he would have shown a modicum of decency toward other human beings, he probably wouldn’t be laying in the morgue right now.

Oh let me tell you, more people outside era both in industry and outside industry who chris1964 is rather than who Morrigan and queenvulpix is. I didn't even knew who the later was till this thread and the former I know from some bloodborne discussion. Chris is so important that his leaving caused an entire community create a new forum and industry insiders who ran away from era like zhuge and Benji joining the said forum. Can you say the same for Morrigan or the other mod?

Every freaking place that's discussing what's happening here is fucking folded on the ground laughing hard and rightfully so. The move pretty much betrays every single values this forum standed on, behind the back of EVERYONE. The grift was felt all around the internet.

Now the internet is less fun and more angry? I dont know how else to put it...
This has to be the peak, I can't imagine anything funnier then this.
They took the money and ran like the wind, hilarious. It's going to be fun watching this SJW forum implode
Also hope this forum never allows posts to have Likes.That is the stupidest thing and only made for popular people and echo chamber posts.
This.
disagree with step 5 and 2 but still we all contributed to this scam. Everyone thought its a free place. Sole ownership is bad to begin with. OP purchased shares from everyone when he is having hard time running the place. Mental pressure and all but he purchased every share. He clearly has major plan from start. Things like these cant be done by regular folks in short span of time. Also he is a famous author and knows crypto as well. He planned everything and earned 4.5 million. Meanwhile people like us had no idea whats happening in the background. I come from 3rd world country and i have little understanding how capitalism works but this is a grand example for me. I will change my office email id to gmail one after this. My account is sold to another firm without my knowledge. I thank mods for keeping the place civil but still this just feels like a scam to me.
Why the fuck would you pay $4.5 million for that shithole? They have a history of mass exodus and they will do it again. Cerium is a genius. Evilore should have done the same at the first sign of trouble but he started dreaming about billions.

Excusing the assassination of an elected member of parliament just because they're a Tory is something we're not going to do. You can hate the Tories -- and from my perspective, you can hate them with very good reason -- but what we are not going to do in this thread is say or suggest that an MP deserved to get assassinated, especially while doing something relatively benign like meeting with constituents. I shouldn't have to explain to people why excusing the assassinations of politicians is a bad idea, but apparently I do? "He deserved it." No, he deserved to get voted out of office or be resigned to a small minority in Parliament and spend the rest of his life unhappy that life was made better for working-class people. He didn't deserve to get knifed to death. Period.It's been reported that this is a terrorist attack, but we should also wait until we know more. As I'll remind people who were around in 2011 Gabby Giffords was shot, there was a ton of speculation that it was done by a right-wing terrorist when he was a conspiracy theorist. Let's wait and see what the police find through an investigation on the killer's motives.
